The next season premiere of The Walking Dead is reportedly going to be something to look forward to, according to executive producer Gale Anne Hurd.

Cannibals Will Be At Terminus?

On Wednesday, Wet Paint posted the details from the producer who spoke with AMC. She described what it was like to be back on set and said that "everything is fantastic."

"It feels like being in elementary school the first day you're back after summer break," Hurd said. "Everyone is so excited and they're hugging...we really do have one big family. We've already, not surprisingly, worked with a few walkers. We've really hit our stride now. All of our crew members are completely prepared, our cast is top-notch and confident, the scripts are coming in and we have such fantastic directors."

Actor Won't Be In Season 5 After All?

Hurd was asked what she was mostly excited about, which happens to be the premiere.

"I'm really looking forward to the premiere, and the reactions that the fans have once we're back on the air," Hurd said. "That's why we do all this- the cast, the crew- we're part of a big worldwide family with our fans. The connection, the feedback, the love- and a little bit of hate sometimes- is why we're sitting here sweating in Georgia. We do it for the fans."

Series creator Robert Kirkman recently told Entertainment Weekly that the new season will be "crazy and exciting," and that he apparently "can't wait" until he can start revealing more details.

The Walking Dead Season 5 is expected to premiere in October on AMC.
